Chapter 324: Alchemy Conspiracy
The alchemy furnace is called "Red Copper Bagua Furnace". It was Yun Canghai who made the Ziyang red copper refined by hollowing out the nine copper mine veins in Haizhou as the main body, mixed with many precious materials, and was placed by Yun Canghai in the spiritual cave with the strongest aura in Haizhou for hundreds of years. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth regulates the underground dragon veins and has been tempered by the spiritual energy of the earth veins. Its quality has long reached the level of a spiritual treasure. Although it is not as good as the "Yuan Mo Ancient Cauldron" owned by a top sect with profound foundations such as Zhongyāng Demon Sect, acquired spiritual treasures of the same level are also very rare.
After Yun Canghai put the "Red Copper Bagua Furnace" in place, he let it fall quietly on the spot. For a while, he could only hear the "cracking" sound of the fire in the alchemy furnace. Yun Canghai printed several alchemy seals on the "Red Copper Bagua Furnace". The alchemy furnace moved slightly and then began to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy. Shenglong Square is the place with the most spiritual energy in Dragon Island. Just being absorbed by the "Red Copper Bagua Furnace" formed a slight vortex within a hundred meters. A huge amount of spiritual energy was absorbed into the "Red Copper Bagua Furnace". The flames in the furnace burned more vigorously, and gradually the surface of the alchemy furnace was covered with a layer of purple meaning. This meant that the internal and external furnace temperatures had been adjusted to the optimal level. A sign that you can start making alchemy.
Mu Linggong also took out a few seeds from his arms and threw them into the square. When the seeds saw the light, they quickly sprouted and stretched out branches, growing out strips of rattan. The rattan then branched out into more branches, pieces the size of a desktop. Leaves also grew from the canes. Countless canes and leaves were woven into a huge net in mid-air, embracing the dragons in the square. These rattans only need to absorb the surrounding aura and sunlight to grow and do not need to take root in the soil (of course, with the hardness of Shenglong Square, it is difficult for these seeds to break through this barrier and penetrate into the soil), so there is no damage to the square.
I saw that after wrapping the dragon clan's gathering point, the large rattan net simultaneously emitted green fluorescent dots, like naughty elves falling slowly in the sky and then flew towards a giant dragon that was just lying down and humming. It got in through their mouths, noses and other orifices. The giant dragon has never seen such a thing. Just when he was about to make a move, he suddenly felt a warm current rising up in his body and constantly flowing through his body. It was as if his whole body was soaked in a hot spring. It was very comfortable, and there was a refreshing feeling in his head. The extremely tired mind that was tortured by the curse suddenly felt comfortable and relaxed. This time. The dragons, who were a little commotion at first, calmed down and savored this rare comfort. Some dragons who were too tired even snored and fell asleep comfortably.
This is also one of Mu Linggong's auxiliary spells called "Soothing Green Light", which uses mana to catalyze a special plant with soothing and calming effects and then release the tree species, that is, the green fluorescence into the body of the living thing. For the power of medicine to treat it. After Mu Linggong's treatment, the mood and mental state of the giant dragons improved a lot, which would also help with the treatment later.
"Everything is ready. Once the elders bring back the materials, we can start making the alchemy." Yun Canghai checked the status of the alchemy furnace with his soul and nodded with satisfaction. In fact, he didn't have to wait for the "alchemy materials" brought by the elders, but after all, they had been busy all day on this matter. If they really knew that he had been tricked, they would probably be angry on the spot. Although Yun Canghai had already learned from Fran that Fran and these elders were not on good terms, he did not want to bring the conflict to the surface so quickly.
"Thank you, Master." Frank and Drotus thanked him.
Yun Canghai and Mu Linggong nodded to them and then sat cross-legged in the square to meditate. Fran and Drotus didn't want to disturb them, so they came under the giant rattan net to take care of the dragons. The air in the giant rattan net space is fresh and cool, even if it is not used for treatment, it is a good place to rest. While taking care of the giant dragon, Flan was also thinking about whether he should ask Mu Linggong for some of these rattans in the future. Planting trees will allow the dragon clan to have such a resting place in the future.

After waiting for a long time, several elders finally came back before dark. Although their clothes and scales were still neat, a hint of fatigue could be seen in their brows, which showed that it was not that easy to collect these materials.
Several elders also expressed surprise at the sudden appearance of Mu Linggong, but after Fran's introduction, their attitudes were not so contradictory. After greeting each other, they came to Yun Canghai and threw a storage ring to him. "Master Yun." This is the material you asked us to collect." It can be seen that several elders were not so obedient in the process of collecting these materials. You can hear it in the impatient tone of Elder Guangming Shenglong.
It was a hexagonal ring. The whole body was made of light silver. The surface was engraved with fine and beautiful textures. Tiny charms were hidden in these textures. At the top of the ring, there was a ruby carved into the shape of a dragon. The whole ring was shrouded in a faint layer of light. It looks luxurious and mysterious in the fluctuation of space.
This is a storage ring. The creations under Western alchemy are different from the Eastern storage magic weapons that are made by using Xumi formations to open up space. Western storage equipment is made of materials containing space elements. Under the influence of alchemy, the space element is extracted and communicates with the void, opening up a communication space channel inside the equipment so that it can store items.
The difference between the two is that the size of the internal space of the Oriental Storage Magic Weapon mainly depends on the hardness of the material and the strength of the Xumi Formation that is driven into it. Only materials that are hard enough can withstand the development of a high-level Xumi Formation. Create a large and stable space;
Western storage equipment is different. The size of their internal space depends more on the amount of space elements contained in the selected materials. Western alchemy is inherently different from Eastern alchemy. It is a magical technique that contains the principles of "physical transformation" and "material exchange". It is equally broad, profound, rigorous and thoughtful. The focus is more on "equivalent exchange", which can be converted into different substances. It is a technology that turns decay into magic. It is known as "turning stone into gold" and its power is evident.
In alchemy, there are generally no high requirements for the hardness of a storage ring. Under the influence of alchemy, even a ball of soil only needs to contain enough space elements inside. All can be trained into a storage ring. Because the principle of the internal storage ring is simply to activate the space element in the material so that it can resonate with the void, open the void channel, connect the inside of the ring to the void, and open up a space in the corresponding place in the void so that it can store items.
Of course, this is just a simple statement. In reality, it is naturally not that simple. However, because storage equipment is used to such a high degree, the Western world has spared no effort in researching it. After countless years of research, a set of mature and rigorous techniques have been formed that can achieve the best results at the lowest cost, so some unnecessary steps have been omitted and simplified into today's refining method.
Since it is not directly opening up space in the ring, it is just laying a mark leading to the void, so the requirements for the solidity of the material itself are not high.
Therefore, the more space elements contained in the material, the larger the space that can be opened after communicating with the void, and the more items can be stored. Legend has it that those highly skilled alchemists were even able to create storage equipment that could store living things! That is already the domain of God.
Yun Canghai took the storage ring and just scanned it lightly with his spiritual mind. He felt that this was a storage ring that could be called an artifact. All the materials were made of materials that even he didn't know. It contained a strong... The strong space element even has a hint of life! Inside the ring he found a mark formed by the power of space. This mark opened a passage to the void.
Yun Canghai's spiritual thoughts extended to the opposite side of the passage and discovered that it was actually a large space opened in the void with a radius of about ten miles! Inside is a piece of floating land, with plants growing on the ground and water sources. The land is surrounded by a layer of misty white light, filling the space with air. There was an open space in the middle of the land where a bunch of miscellaneous materials were piled up, exactly what he wanted.
"It's actually a space that can store life! The Dragon Clan's family is really rich." He was secretly surprised that Yun Canghai calmly took out the materials and put them on the ground. If there are no other animals or objects in the space, they must have been put away. This ring looked like an important item of the dragon clan. It seemed that several elders didn't want him to know their details, so they took precautions in advance.
"Oh, let's see~~~~~~Well, a little bit is a little bit too much, but it's a bit too much. It seems that the elders have really bothered. Okay, you guys have a rest for a while and watch me make alchemy." After counting the "alchemy materials", Yun said Canghai said to several elders while secretly laughing in his heart.
He didn't expect that these dragon clan elders were quite capable and could actually collect all the materials he wanted. You must know that the materials he asked for contain a lot of strange and weird things. Although they are not precious, they are rare and most people don't know what they are used for. These elders actually collected all these things, which shows how "careful" they are.
"Anyway, I have worked so hard to refine elixirs for you, so I should give you some hard work." Yun Canghai thought secretly in his heart. There are many precious materials in these items, which are indispensable for refining a good magic weapon. For example, adding a little bit of fine gold sand to the magic weapon can improve the compatibility with the power of the magic weapon Gengjin. It has the same effect as Taibai fine gold. Each gram of Bo Zhong is worth ten pieces of spiritual jade.
Even those weird materials can be used in some simple but practical small spells, such as some curses and sacrifices. In general, although the things he wants are useless for this alchemy, they can be used on him, which is equivalent to using the dragons as free labor to make profits for himself. After calculating the value of these items, Yun Canghai knew that he had made a lot of money. Even if he got nothing in the future, the rewards he had already received would be enough for this time.
Elder Guangming Shenglong and others couldn't help feeling relaxed after listening to Yun Canghai's words. They said that their trip to collect materials did not go smoothly. Fortunately, those precious materials were more or less obtained in their early years because of their own preciousness. It's enough to gather a few people and put it together. What's difficult is that some of those weird materials have never been seen by them before. After mobilizing the forces operating in the wild continent and intimidating several major human countries and some totem guardian beasts who are afraid of dragons to run errands for them, it took a lot of hard work to get them. All these materials are collected. If they weren't worried that Frank would use them to complete the task and legitimately weaken their power and prestige, they wouldn't be so dedicated.
Several elders are not stupid. They have also tested some materials in the process of collecting these materials, but they have never been able to understand their role in alchemy. They have long suspected that Yun Canghai has used them or converted them. Fooled. However, because he knew nothing about Eastern alchemy and had no suitable reason to accuse Yun Canghai, he could only suppress the anger in his heart and record this debt to Yun Canghai for the time being.
Yun Canghai started to make alchemy.
He first turned a "ten thousand-year stalactite" from a piece of material on his finger into a ball of water and flew out into the alchemy furnace. The flawless milky white liquid entered the alchemy furnace and was roasted by the purple fire. It turned into a white mist and enveloped the entire furnace cavity. A faint fragrance wafted out, which made people feel shocked.
Ten-thousand-year stalactites are produced from stalactites formed in underground spiritual veins or spiritual caves. Even in the Eastern world of cultivation, they are treasures that are hard to find. Back then, Lord Kurong used a bottle of ten-thousand-year stalactites to make them. The truce between the White Tiger Demon King and him shows how valuable it is. The ten-thousand-year-old stalactite contributed by several elders weighs more than a kilogram, and it is a strange thing that it has not been used up after using it for who knows how many years.
The ten thousand year stalactite can not only be taken, but can also be used to make elixirs. After being soaked in the white air mass transformed by this layer of ten thousand year stalactites, the refined elixir will have the effect of clearing away inner demons and cleansing the essence and marrow, which is the way to make elixirs. Good material. Yun Canghai is not willing to waste such precious materials. Anyway, the Dragon Clan only needs to lift the curse and replenish their vitality. Using these ten thousand-year-old stalactites is a pure waste.
So he only used about ten milliliters of ten thousand year old stalactites to make elixirs, and the rest were secretly stored in a secret storage space inside the "Red Copper Bagua Furnace" as his own collection.
This storage space also exists for a reason. As the leader of the cultivation world in Haizhou, Yun Canghai cannot avoid communicating with other members of the Haizhou Council. Needless to say, most of the human race are followers of the Yin-Yang Sect, but those native demon tribes do not accept the penetration of the Yin-Yang Sect. Although these demon clans in Haizhou don't have many masters, they are still far behind the "Ten Thousand Demons Alliance" in Middle-earth. However, due to the large number of people who have survived for a long time, their knowledge is crude and they have little knowledge of cultivation. They have more or less a lot of inventory in their hands, and there are also many rare materials that have been passed down from ancient times. However, due to their own abilities, they were unable to make full use of it, but they were unwilling to exploit the natural resources, so they could seal it away before.
Until the rise of Yuncanghai and Jianzhen, after experiencing a series of events, the world of Haizhou and the world of cultivation finally entered a new era. After many years of exchanges, the human race and the demon race transformed from mortal hatred and hostility into confrontation and relaxation, and finally finally became harmonious. get along. The circulation of items also began between the two tribes. Due to the teachings of Yun Canghai and Jian Zhen, various techniques in the human cultivation world of Haizhou have improved rapidly. Some demon tribes who saw the opportunity also began to use some things that they could not use or utilize. The materials should be handed over to the Haizhou Council for exchange or simply hire humans to refine magic weapons or elixirs for themselves.
In this way, the human race has been rewarded and enriched with cultivation items, and the demon race does not have to guard the treasure mountain in vain. It can finally use the materials passed down by the ancestors into actual things to improve the demon race's physical strength. The Haizhou Assembly also collected large commissions from successful transactions and enhanced its prestige. All three parties benefited.
However, after all, Haizhou human cultivators are no better than those orthodox cultivators in Middle-earth who have countless years of inheritance. Even if they have developed for hundreds of years, they have only cultivated a few batches of medium-strength cultivators among those purebred Chinese people with superhuman qualifications. Some of them are Japanese and mixed-race people who don't have access to the skills that can be practiced, such as onmyojis and demon slayers. Those who are called non-cultivators are at best practitioners of supernatural powers.
These people can still compete in some low-intensity battles, but once they start refining magic weapons and elixirs, they can only refine some magical weapons and elixirs that are not even low-level and can only be called elementary. Even the elites of the Yin Yang Sect and the Vinaya Sect can only refine medium-grade magic weapons and elixirs at most. If they are forced to refine products or top-grade magic weapons and elixirs, the success rate will be extremely low; and even such people are rare and hard to find. several.
There are many real treasures among the materials collected by those monsters. Naturally, they are reluctant to be wasted like this, so Yun Canghai has a business.
